Yes, they are the same. Severe depression is also called "major" depression. The differentiation is with bipolar depression. That depression is the depressive cycle of the illness. Clinical depression is more prevalent in women. While there is no research-based reason for this, in my opinion it is because research has shown that women are more emotional than are men.

Can clinical depression turn into manic depression?
Not in the way that you are asking. Depression is one illness; manic depression is a separate illness. However, it is possible that you are actually manic depressive or bipolar instead of just being unipolar depressive. Sometimes the manic phase does not show up at the same time as the depression. Teenagers and young adults often have depression first, before the first manic episode.
